My wife prior to reverting to Islam, had various dogs including German sheppard / Akita. Yes it was hard to find another home for the dogs. However as time passes by she had learned and accepted why it is not permissable to keep a dog in the home.

Back home in Jamaica my wife's parents property which is very large has dozens of dogs. However this is permissable as these are all guard dogs that only stay outside and perform a task that is needed.

Please dont fall into people's lies and accept that Islam views dogs or various other animals as evil, these thoughts are simply made up by traditions generally south Asian that believe certain animals bring the jinn and shatan. Just nonsense, this even goes for the pig we are not to harm it, in no shape way or form is it an evil animal etc etc.

Inshallah you will be fine, I love birds and keep parrots and had a massive saltwater aquarium. Just remember you are responsible to ensure they live well and are not abused.
